STOLE srEER.-A young fellow nam
cd Mullen, whose folks live in "Den-
mark" east Of Grand river, came TO
town last Friday with very fat, corn
fed steer. lie endeavored to sell the
animal 10 Skinner 4 Hunt and finally
agreed 10 take Sl2.50-half its value.
Mr.. Skinner was satisfied from the
FIRST the steer had been stolen and so
had Mullen taken in custody by the
officers. He was held for a while but
told su ch plausible story and seem
ed so unconcerned that Isbell told him
to go TO bed and come around in the
morning. He evidently had a good
deal Of trouble in finding a place to
sleep-leastwise he has not since show
ed up and the presumption is he is
still searching for a bed. The horse
which he was riding and the steer are
here and will be. he'd until claimed.
SEETENcED TO HANG. On Wednes-
day Of last week. at Cooweescoowee
court house. Mrs. Sarah Fields Del
aware woman, was convicted Of infan-
ticide and sentenced to be hanged at
Tahlequah on August 18th. Mrs.
Sields, her husband, and also her
daughter Ellen Compston, aged eigh-
teen. were indicted for taking the life
of the latter's illegitimate infant child.
Fields, being a white man, pleaded
lack OF Jurisdiction aud was released.
The daughter was tried jointly with
her mother, and as TO her case the
jury stood eleven for conviction to one
for acquittal. She will be again tried
on the first day Of June. The mother
was at once conveyed to the national
prison, arriving there Thursday even
ing. The crime was shown to have
been committed about the 2Sth of last
August. All the proof was, in meas
ure, circumstantiai but apparently
very conclusive. No testimony was
introduced by the defense, their hopes
for acquittal seeming to be based upon
the insufIiciency OF the case for the
nation.

It affords me pleasure to give you this report of the cure of our little grandchild by your CUTIcuRA REMEDIES. When six months old his left hand be- gan to swell and had every appearance Of a large boil We poulticed it, but all to no purpose. About five months after it became running sore. Soon each hand and as his blood became more and more impure it took less time for them to break out. A sore came the chin, beneath the under lip which was very offensive. His head was one solid scab discharging great deal. This his condition at twenty two months old when undertook the care of him, his mother having died when he was little more than a year old of consumption (scrofula of up if he fell down and could not move when in bed having of his hands. 1 immediately com menced with the Cuticura Remedies, using the Cuticura and Cuticura Soap freely and when he had taken bottle of the Cuticura ReSolvent his head was completely cured and he was improved in every way We were very much encouraged and con- tnued the use of the Remedies for year and a forming in each of these five deep ones just be- fore healing, which would finally grow loose and were taken out; then they would heal rapidly. One of these ugly bone formations l preserved. After taking dozen and half bottles he complete ly cured, and is now, at the age of six years, a strong and healthy child. The scars on his hands must always remain; his hands are strong, though we once feared he would never be able to use them. All that physicians did for him did him good All who saw the child before using the Cuticura Reme- dies and see the child now consider it wonderful cure. If the above facts of any to you, you are at liberty to use them. MRS. E. S.. .DRIGGS,
